Abstract

The present article is to survey philosophical principles of ontology on which transcendent politics can be based in a basic method of its own. Fundamental reality of being, hierarchical nature of being, its goodness, simplicity as well as truthfulness, along with Unity of God in creation and legislation and any act can be listed as elements of transcendent politics. These principles can easily constitute a basic method for producing transcendent politics so as to explain socio-political life of human beings and guarantee their happiness both in this world and hereafter. Concepts such as self-respect, justice, freedom, wisdom, rule and sovereignty, authority and legitimacy can be materialized only on true understanding of such principles. These and corresponding epistemic dimensions can provide not illusory but true knowledge in the domain of political philosophy and make the society the locus for Divine manifestation.
